They keep getting greater, and greater . . . some day there will be a flower.

Whoever thought up this "Anticipation" thread - Thank You! It allows us to share the torture of waiting.

It seems I am forgiven for taking a vacation in August. Several 'chids putting on new sheaths here, including Blc. Chia Lin who aborted a huge fat one while I was away.
Hopefully will have these orange babies open for Halloween:

Big noid that has finally stopped making leaves and roots, and Chia Lin with two !! little sheaths started.

And a new one I got in May Blc. Dancing Sunlight 'Sunny' x Myrmecophila brysiana 'Amarilla' - it had better be yellow with that name!

After nearly 3 years of rehab on this plant - Odbrs. mem Nicoline Lorentzen 'Marz Starz' has a spike! Hurray!
I've forgotten what it looked like - it had one flower almost done when I rescued it from Death Row at HD.

dont you love that, i have a Oncidium that i got ages, probably years ago in a trade and have never seen it flower and i recently moved it and it now has 2-3 new spikes on it...but you know how long Oncidium spikes take to grow the buds and open. Rolling my eyes.
